Day 1: Paro (2280m)

Overnight in Paro.

Our guide will welcome you at the Paro International Airport. After checking in at the hotel and having lunch, you get the first taste of Bhutanese art, architecture and culture when our guide shows you the Paro Dzong and the Ta Dzong. The dzong is perhaps the most visibly striking architectural aspect of the kingdom. It was constructed originally as a fortress. But today, the dzong is the administrative and religious centre of the dzongkhag (or district) in Bhutan. You will also visit the ruins of Drukgyel Dzong, which was destroyed by fire caused by a butter lamp in 1951. You will also visit one of Bhutan's oldest and most beautiful temples - Kyichu Lhakhang. Here you will experience the peace and serenity amidst fresh crisp mountain air.

Day 2: Paro (2280m)

Overnight in Paro.

This morning, you test your stamina and determination to hike up to the Taktsang Lhakang (3120m). Translated, it means ‘Tiger’s Nest’ and the temple, the holiest in Bhutan, clings to a sheer cliff face 900m above the Paro Valley. It is also the most important icon of Bhutan.

Days 3 - 6: Druk Path Trek

Day 7: Thimphu (2320m)

Overnight in Thimphu.

After a night's rest in the comfort of the Thimphu hotel, and rewarded with a sense of achievement for having completed the trek, you will be filled with the energy to find out more about Thimphu, the capital of Bhutan. We will drive you up to Buddha Point, where you will get a panoramic view of Thimphu Valley. Today, you will also visit The School of Thirteen Arts & Crafts, Traditional Textile Factory, and the Traditional Paper Making Factory. If you are curious enough, you may also stroll through the streets and roads of Thimphu, the only city in the world without traffic lights, in the evening and do some shopping.

Day 8: Thimphu (2320m) - Paro (2280m)

Overnight in Paro.

After breakfast, we will head for the Motithang Takin Preserve, to see the national animal of Bhutan - the takin, with its intriguing myth behind it. You will also get to see the Folk Heritage Museum to get a fascinating insight into Bhutanese material culture and way of life. After checking out of the hotel in Thimphu, you will visit the National Memorial Chorten and Tashichho Dzong before driving back to Paro.
